Content Providers / Aggregators
Concentrate on their core business:
High quality content production, aggregation and syndication
Monetize their content and use the internet to reach Any
screen Anywhere
Expand and evolve the business models – pay per view, rental, one
time buy, advertise support, revenue share, etc
Peer to Peer is cautiously considered as a way to lower
the cost of delivery. However,
Tradeoff on security, control and Quality of Experience

Over the Top (OTT) Factor
P2P networks enable mass distribution of media content to the end user
with widely varying controls and monetization
Method of distribution is evolving and shifting value in current Service
Providers, particularly Access Service Providers
As P2P / OTT becomes the dominant a mode of consumption, content producers
and Service Providers need to adjust to avoid commoditization and
marginalization
What ASP methods will both satisfy both the consumer and the value
chain while meeting the Content Provider needs?
Adopt P2P as an optimization technology within the ASP
Leverage Application innovation to drive monetization of content (Ad channels,
iTunes, snugbug, Orb, Sling etc.)
Contribute to making the Internet a more cost effective, reliable solution capable
of delivering content, application flexibility and personization
Common platform that allows monetization of service delivery ?

Illegal Content perception
Threatens traditional delivery
Upstream Link Saturation
Transit Cost Increase
Limited participation in value add
Traffic Management
Peering Concepts with current eqip
Build out Network / Upgrades
P2P Caching
Compete w / OTT Players
Collaborate
From co-marketing to
Integration of Services
Optimised Delivery: CDN, QoS,
Multicast, Quota exemption
Improved Access to TV & Mobile /
STB / GW
